Cleave, the author, did a fantastic job writing in two different point of views for this story. Laura and Little Bee are about as different as two people could be, but he was able to create the voice of each character flawlessly. My mom gave me this book last year to read and I honestly don’t know why I took so long to get to it. To future readers of this novel — go into this one blind. I didn’t read any summaries or teasers before opening up this book and I’m glad I didn’t. The story was much more impactful not knowing the relationship between the two narrators right away.
